The PS3 is safely wrapped up under my Christmas tree waiting Christmas morning. I will now have all three next gen consoles. So all these battleline arguments over which is best and quite obvious attempts by everyone to make themselves feel better over which system they chose (be it Sony, 360, Wii, or Sega Saturn) are completely moot for me.

In fact, I might jump into all these arguments and design each of my messages so that they have three sections, each written from 1/3rd of my gaming personality from each of the three fanboi perspectives.

Guy I work with, who is not a gamer and has never played one, was at Walmart over the weekend when he noticed two PS3's sitting on the shelf. Why, I don't know, but he bought one.

Ain't it funny how a non-gamer can be out, not even looking for one and nab one a week before xmas-and gamers, who would kill for one, can't get one to save their souls? Funny really.

He says he was not worried cuz he knew if he didn't keep it I would buy it off of him. He would have been disappointed there as I would not have, but a moot point since he decided to keep it as a bluray player.

Oh, and I highly recommend the extended warranty. On that expensive of a system it gives me chills to think of not having one.

Well since I bought it to sell it originally, I didn't buy the ebgames warranty. So I guess I have to pray it remains in good condition don't I?

It comes with a 1 year warranty from Sony, so it's not that big a deal on the PS3. The Wii also has a 1 year warranty, standard. The issue with the 360 was that it only came with a 90 day warranty, so the extended service plan made a lot more sense. Kudos to MS though for upping it now to 1 year! Nice.
